>I pirate games to try them out before I buy them
Have any of you cheap bastards actually bought a game after pirating it?
>>321409808
Jenny a best.
That is all.
>>321409808
I did that with Re;birth1.
FTL, about a week after I downloaded it. It helps that it was still pretty cheap.
Hotline Miami 2, Isaac Rebirth, and Fallout 4.
Fuck you.
>>321409808
Skyrim and Morrowind, yes.
>no, because the only games I don't just buy are ones I'm reasonably worried about not enjoying, and my intuition has always been right.
Only if it has online play.
Mass effect, oblivion, WMMA, gauntlet, devil may cry 3 and 4
Now stop shitposting
I did. Sometimes though I buy the sequel of the game when it comes out, supports the developer more.
I'll do that with Dishonored 2 for example.
>trying to justify piracy
Only spineless faggots do that. I pirate games I feel like pirating and I buy games when I feel like buying, that's the only "rule" there is to it.
>>321409808
Did this with Undertale a while ago.
Alien Isolation is the most recent.
>>321409808
Risk of Rain and only because no one was uploading updated versions. I'm willing to spend money on a game if I get a better experience than the pirated version. But if I can pirate an up to date version that works perfectly I won't buy the game.
>>321409808
Yeah, Lisa, jut about now.
>>321409808
I did it with Alpha Protocol
Yes.
Years later, when I can get it on a Steam sale for three bucks.
I did it with Starbound.
Don't really do it that much anymore.
Did it with Fallout 3 and Xenonauts.
I bought Civ 5 on release after pirating the series for 20 years
So if other game can keep me entertained for 20 years I'll buy it as well
>>321409808
nope
hahahahaha
y tf would i buy a game when i can pirate it?
you know i was actually trying to be nice when i bought FO4, trying to give back to the community. but todd may as well have come to my house, personally, and wiped his ass with 60 bucks cash because
holy
fucking
shit
was i swindled
almost every single game i torrent i end up playing for an hour or two at max. I dont buy games i think i wont like. Im glad i didnt give my money to those filthy devs
>>321409808
Civilization V I pirated and bought when I had the money to buy it
I pirated AOE III because I owned the physical CE, but have a broken disk drive. Later purchased it again during a Steam sale
Other games that I've pirated, I never purchased
The list is really short though, I don't pirate a lot
>>321409808
I pirate games for my PC after having played the console version earlier that year.
>>321410376
more jenny please
>>321409808
You basically just described how demos work. I don't see the problem
You have to be literally, LITERALLY retarded to pay for something you can get for free, regardless of how rich or poor you are.Literally
simpleminded drones and assblasted merchants still trying to portray the free distribution of information as a moral dilemma
I pirate all my games and there's not a fucking thing you can do about it.
>>321409808
Yes.
maybe when it goes on sale
>>321409808
Yes I have.
>>321412914
I don't get this.
Fat animefags are the MOST likely to pirate.
In fact, that's what killed
I'll do it when I get in a good position with money, though I rarely pirate nowadays
Sometimes. Most recently was with crimzon clover when I was new to shmups.
Holy fuck that game is definitely worth the $2.50
>>321409808
Yes
>Try out Guilty Gear X on GBA through an emulator
>Find out there's a Guilty Gear XX on PS2
>Buy it immediately because I had a lot of fun with GGX on GBA
I'm not sure if this counts as pirating before buying directly.
>>321413446
sauce, google gives me nothing
>>321413610
Did you read the image? The guy on the bottom is some fag trying to "justify" why he's pirating.
>>321409808
yes. i pirated ds1 2 weeks ago, loved it, made a post on /vg/ asking how to get the online to work and some anons told me to wait until the christmas sale and just buy it for $5. its the my only game on steam now. im gonna start buying more games because i honestly had no idea about this steam sale shit until now.
i still think pirating is a good idea for me because my laptops specs are ok for most games but it cant handle shit like fallout 4 etc, so if i were to pirate a game it would just be to test if its laggy as fuck or not.
>>321409808
Yes, I have bought many of them. Why do you ask?
>>321409808
Childhood waifu thread?Before you say "underage!!!", I'm 20. 2005 is old to me.
>>321409808
Rebelstar: Tactical Command
Pretty solid GBA game, even if the ending's bugged. Liked it a lot more than the XCOM reboot because it had the AP system and bullets strayed like they were supposed to and didn't just 'hit' or 'miss.' You could walk up to a large target, unload a machine pistol and probably kill it. Only cost 20 bucks anyhow
>>321413772
theboogie
Final Fantasy XIII
yes, every game i've pirated that i enjoyed i purchased (DE:HR, Undertale, BoI, JC2 are some examples)
>>321412747
>You wouldn't download a robot
>>321413772
>not recognizing boogies work
How? He's the only person left that draws decent jenny porn
>>321409808
I pirate games because I'm not gonna pay for something I can get free. I don't give a fuck, call the cops.
>>321413660
You did well.
>>321409808
How cucked you have to be to pay for a game after you already played it?
Yes. Happened with GTA IV, Skyrim, KSP, Xenonauts, Burnout Paradise and Door Kickers &Survivor Squad.
I have MoWAS2 & the Stalker series pirated and I'd like to redeem myself by buying them someday.
>>321413793
>The most likely to pirate wouldn't also be the least probable to not give a fuck
Shit, OPM secondaries bitch about reviews and reactions bitch if your video ISN'T pirating on freaking Youtube.
>sink hundreds of hours into Skyrim
>get a new computer
>buy Skyrim on sale
>never launch it
>>321414203
You're still managing to miss the point of a fucking strawman MS Paint comic, good job
>>321411231
Damn, that must be a dangerous sport.
Most of the games I've pirated on PC I've bought on Steam, so yeah, sometimes you really DO just want to try a game out.I've never bought a Nintendo game I've pirated though
I've done the opposite several times.
>buy game with cd and everything
>too much of a hassle to install it from cd so I pirate it instead
>still keep the cd
doing this must almost be legal
>>321412914
Language sure is difficult. You could say
> You have to be literally, LITERALLY retarded to pay for something you are allowed to get for free
but you just sound like a shoplifter if you phrase it like you do.
>>321414313
In the USA and canada it is 100 percent legal.
Yes, if the gameplay vids and demos convince me enough that it is reliable evidence that the game is good.
XJ9 ARE YOU MAKING THRRREADS ON THAT 4CHAN WEBSITE AGAIN?
YOUNG LADY I FORBID YOU TO BRRROWSE THAT WEBSITE.
>>321409808
All the fucking time. If anything it gets me to buy more games because I'm more confident in my purchase.
I just bought FO4 and I've been playing it since day -1. Been having fun with Subnautica, gonna get that too when Steam changes its underwear.

>>321409808

The show was honestly pretty good past robot porn.
>>321409808
Ill stop pirating once I have a stable income and get a job. I feel uncomfortable spending any amount of money if I dont have an income of my own, so I end up buying no clothes, cheap equipment etc.
>>321413931
I would, in a fucking heartbeat

I played FF6 on an emulator before buying the steam port.
>I pirate games to try them out before I buy them
Never used that argument but yes I bought quite a lot games that I loved when I was younger but was too poor to afford. Haven't really touched most of them since I can legally play them though
>>321415601
Dont want that Jenny porn too stiff or too gooey. Unless you like it gooey.
>>321413872
Sabrina (cartoon) and Louis are shit tier
>>321415707
Alright, that's all my Jennys. Character sheets are cool as shit.
>>321409808
Did it with terraria, civ V, and i bought some shit from the path of exile cash shop. If a game im playing for free turns out to be worth money, the people responsible for the game get some money. That said, I've also made some stupid fucking purchases like starbound and castle story so clearly im not financially responsible
>>321409808
X-COM: Enemy Unknown
Mass Effect - all of them
Dragon Age: Origins

tons. i remember the day morrowind came out and i downloaded some shitty repack that didnt have music and stuff to keep it small. played like 30 mins and went to the store to get it for $60.
Nah. I pirate them, complete them then delete them.
I pirate because I fucking can.
I have probably over 100 pictures of Jenny on my computer
I wait for sales and check reviews.

Buying games on sale is just as bad as piracy. You're taking advantage of companies being raped into charging less than the game is worth because Steam has a monopoly on pc games and can manipulate the market without fear.
"LOL STEAM SALE BRO! How much do you want to charge for your game?"
"the fair price I stated before"
"OK BUT NOW EVERYONE HATES YOU, SRY BRO!"
then years later when the dev is completely mindbroken
"o-ok we'll sell at any price, you've ruined us"
"THANKS BRO! WE'RE GLAD YOU LET STEAM'S MONEY DICK IN AT LAST!"
>>321415625
>>321409808
yes, many times
>>321416289
Some money is better than no money, muppet
>>321415965
>I don't know how animation studios work and now I have to shitpost to make up for it :-[ :-[ :-[
Dont even bother responding. No one will take you seriously.
>>321416421
If steam weren't such manipulative cunts they'd be getting all money due to them.
Steam takes advantage of devs, basically rapes the companies that make the games you love EA style, and you applaud because they saved you 20 bucks.
It's a pretty sad state of affairs and I'm pretty sure it should be illegal.
>>321416147
I said over. Probably 500-600 or so.
>come to /v/ after blowing load to z0ne's jenny flash ffor the 90th time

>Not supporting game devs that put real, honest work into their games
>>321416535

Well of course I'm gonna applaud if I save £20 on a game. Are you some kind of retard that would pay full price for a year old game?
>>321416138
>There will never be real blueprints to make Jenny in real life
>>321414979
Pirating is wrong and you are all bad.
Pirates=tumblrI don't really give a shit I just don't want to be completely off topic
>>321416625
>implying games are 33% less valuable at a year old
By that logic every game that's 3 years old or older should be free. I realize the modern gamer has the attention span of a gnat but come the fuck on, not that much changes in one year and a good game stays good for decades. Some of them will probably never age all the way down into unplayable.
>Way of The Samurai 4

Also support game devs or whatever
People wonder why gaming has changed. Well you all chose to pirate your game. Your non-sale just showed the gaming developers what sells, and now they make games for people who buy games. I hope you're proud of your contribution to the newest generation of video games.

>>321417162
It's ok anon, there's always a bright side if you look for it. Remember, pre piracy the pattern usually went like this....
Studio makes a legendary game.
Sells like hotcakes
Publishers want more sales, they want a sequel and they want it now!
Sequel is of reduced quality
Repeat the last two steps until your favorite game is ruined.
Now, publishers are no longer necessary. Some random guy in a basement can make a game, sell it, get most of the profit from the game, and decide to make a sequel when and if he deems it necessary.
The result....no more new ips being raped and ruined. Except for AAA ips.....but they dont' make new ones anymore
>>321417450
>>321409808
Yeah. I buy them on Steam and just keep playing the pirated version.
Coincidentally all of my games say "played 5 minutes" on my account.
>>321416895
Obviously it depends on the game. Call of Duty games take a few years to reduce in price but are you telling me you're against games going on sale?
I would rather purchase a game at a cheaper price than full price because that's being smart with your money.
But I don't buy most games. I'll pirate them.
why would you do than when you can just use steam refunds if you dont like the game?
>>321409808
yeah i bought dark souls 1, new vegas, civ 5 and other shit. Most games i pirate i play for an hour anyway might as well be a demo
>>321417598
Another reason why Steam is good.
>try online game
>play for an hour
>realise it's shit
>get money back
Then you can just pirate the single player kind of games.
>>321414805
That's lubricant anon.
>>321417558
ultimately it depends on how important you think video games are.
i avoid sales because I support the artform. You look for sales because you want to save money.
I'd rather have well made games than more money, money's not real.
>>321409808
certainly.
The Witcher 3 and pillars of eternity come to mind.
Undertale and recettear
Undertale because I was afraid it would just be a shitty meme game, and while it was a memw game, it was still good, so I bought it
Recettear because I was poor at the time and then a year later I was much better off money-wise so I bought it
>>321409808
i bought FTL after "trying" it.
i didnt buy the new tomb raider after "trying" it cause it's shit.
>>321417082
>Only cucks buy games
>But pirates alter the market by refusing to spend money so that the tumblrs and reddits who do buy games end up being the target audience of every game.
>So really, look at Undertale, look at Fallout 4, look at whatever new game is the new meme to hate, and then look at yourself in the mirror, and ask yourself:
>"Aren't I the cuckest of cucks?"
>>321415125
actually it looks normal since happy shows hair going both directions
>>321409808
Yes, tabletop simulator. Bought it and I've logged 360 hours
>>321409808
Dark souls 1 and 2, the witcher3, men of war series. Coh. A few others that I pirated to LAN then bought to play online when mates moved cities.
>>321417980
I think its just because the animation is head on. I dont remember any shots like that in the show.
>>321409808
I have before, but I pretty much exclusively pirate games now. I don't really feel the need to justify it in any way.
>>321409808
Yep.
How else are you supposed to demo games?
I pirate games without the slightest hint of guilt because I'm a poor motherfucker. No sale is lost since buying the game was never in the equation.
>>321409808
Uh, Papers Please, I did.
Darkest Dungeon maybe once out of EA.
>>321409808
Isaac
Pirate Warriors
FTL
Mount and Blade
Skyrim
FO:NV (but not 3)
Few others, but those are some of my more favored
I pirated Ark of Napishtim and Trails in the Sky SC, though I didn't have a job at the time. I plan on buying them on Steam this weekend when I get paid.
>>321409808
I tried out the Skullgirls demo, didn't like it, torrented it, fell in love with Cerebella, and bought it + every character dlc, so yeah, it happens.
>>321416138
>twin manifold access ports
How did they get away with this?
>>321417020
this, actually
I had so much fun with it that I felt really guilty for pirating it and bought it immediately
I am too normie
>>321414432
>not shoplifting
Stores wouldn't put in self checkout lanes of they didn't want you to steal one or two things with every purchase
>>321409808
Yes. I run on a rule that I'm only allowed a single play-through on a pirated copy.
Tons
Euro truck
Subnautica
Qube
Spelunky
Antichamber

Volgarr the Viking
Etc...
I bought Gnomoria and Tomb Raider Reboot after pirating them

I wonder what it must feel like for Jenny, knowing deep down that no man; not Don, not Travis, not Brad, not any of the many boys she's thirsted for, will never be able to bring her as much pleasure as Sheldon.
The others can only see her as a friend, a novelty, or a toy. Even if they wanted to take things further, that is a huge and more likely than not insurmountable leap to take.
Sheldon is not only willing to give Jenny the attention and pleasure she deserves, but is the only one capable.
The guy is at the same level of robotics knowledge as Nora; maybe even more so because he builds functioning battle mechs like Silver Shell withing the span of a few weeks or months without going through 8 prototypes.
It's no wonder Vexus was all over him.
I don't even pirate games.
It's not a case of "muh morals pay our overlords" or anything. I just forget.
